Good God! I'm glad Mom bought me a rice cooker... :)
Actually, HH is okay, although I don't see the usefulness of it (macaroni 
and flavoring---big deal). Minute rice is gross. (I think it's long 
grain too...)

Thanks. I'll have to check it out. Btw, I associate sushi in Japan 
with the stands at train stations, exactly the kinds of places I 
would be scared to death to buy sushi from here. Can you imagine 
buying raw fish from the people selling hotdogs here?
